Comment (by Behinder):
Thanks Rene Bertin I should rather contact you than Ken who is a moron :(
This video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ_Ckgm0AVc suggest Apple
Silicon have support for 4.6 and Ken is talking about ancient 2.1
ANd yet again conversation about "if macports add something then others
will suffer..." attitude.
The whole point of MESA is to provide support for something that Apple
haven't done. Also point of Vulkan is to create intermediate layer to
translate OpenGL to Metal.
Open source software was always about solving problems by community thanks
to the code being open and easily modified and I see it's not the case
here,so my point is valid - because Qemu is not able to provide on SIlicon
Macs (which more and more people own) native acceleration in x86 mode it
should be hidden and masked (similar as it is done on Gentoo) - let people
intrested build stuff themselves and Macports focus on Intel like it
always did.
Anyway I'm done - it is probably cheaper to get X86 device that making
arguments nobody here listen to.
